I'd like to hear about what Artesian builds was doing right too! Hearing about the bad leadership is disheartening, and I genuinely hope the guy gets some help, urgently works on himself, and is able to live his best life. I'm glad his staff have your help. It'd be really cool to have an autopsy of the company though. Artesian Builds kind of reminds me of quirky PC makers from long ago, and I like that. Makes me think of VoodooPC or early NZXT back when the founder would sign the front of the case. Too bad things didn't turn out differently.

It's a chiplet not chipset interconnect... guess you missed this slight, one letter worth of, difference. It's for general chiplets interconnect to be used in SoCs and on packages, for CPUs or GPUs or NPUs or DPUs or anything else when putting multiple chiplets even with differing tech/arch or functionality on a single package. Thus PCIe with CXL is for outside of compute package devices connections, UCIe is planned for intra-compute-package communication.

Here is the real scandal, If you buy any new Capellix Corsair AIO and try to use it with a LGA 1700 socket it will not work. They make a retrofit kit which is 4 standoffs and say they are in stock. I have waited weeks after I ordered and nothing. I called Corsair and they said you are SOL. They have no idea when they will ship. Basically 6 dollars holding up a 3k build. Buyer beware!!!

Hi Steve and Team, I'm a relatively new regular viewer, just wanted to quickly say thank you for all you guys do for the community in regards to educating and protecting us from the scummy trash. Speaking of scummy trash, I just wanted to add that I for one really enjoy the quips and shade you continue to throw at Noah Katz and hope it continues!! :)

so THAT'S why a pc parts store is making an unusual discount on the XFX GPUs.... I was about to buy a 6600 Speedster today.
But what do I do now? Is there a way to check product ID numbers? Is there a risk of really buying a used new GPU?
And if I do and try to report it to the store I bet they'll say they are not responsible for it...

XFX ... had a number of their cards, on my last one they honored a lifetime warrantee and replaced my 3GB HD7970 with a bump up to a 4GB 570, because their severs screwed up and they lost not mine, but all registrations. They have some good cards, they have some shitboxes, they came out good over the years (unlike PNY and galaxy aka galax)

Why are Intel worried about people using AVX-512? Could it really cut so much into their Xeon sales? It's still Intel sales anyway, and I doubt there are a lot of seriously big businesses that'd rely on unsupported features for their work, and if something goes wrong they have no grounds to complain.

Awesome feature about David Boggs! Looking forward to the investigation reports. The industry is changing every day. New companies are making mistakes and legacy companies are doing the same. Looking forward to seeing who else gets exposed. Don't forget to highlight the ones doing it the right way!

Isn't it possible with the XFX thing that the declared value was the MSRPs and the value the customs agents were saying was the price it was selling for at stores? It may have been a clerical error. Still bad, of course, but that doesn't necessarily imply bad intent if that's the case.
